Every time I went on stage I was so terrified I almost threw up.

When I first came out with my fans and the wind hit me, I almost took off.

The worst thing that ever happened to me on stage is someone ran forward to tell me they loved me and projectile vomited all over the stage. It was horrible.

I couldn't talk to people face to face, so I got on stage and started screaming and squealing and twitching.

When you walk off the stage, I think the end point is that you enjoyed yourself. I get to say that almost every time - either I made a few new fans or something resonated.

I was terrified of being on stage, and I had to work very hard at a craft to get past that.

Once, and only once, I walked on stage and my mind went utterly blank! I had no idea why I was there! My fellow actors had to rescue me. I was very young and new to the business, so I'm glad it didn't give me stage fright for the rest of my life!

I've never told anyone this. But I suffer from terrible stage fright. True. You can't tell though, can you? Unbelievable, the panic. I nearly die of fear before I go on stage. Something wicked. I can't eat a thing the day before a gig. It'd make me vomit.

I remember being onstage once when I didn't have fear: I got so scared I didn't have fear that it brought on an anxiety attack.
